How the Best Of works
Venue categories, like best restaurant, best brewery, or best coffee shop, are ranked by Google and Yelp ratings and review volume and the reader vote. Dish and attribute categories, like best tacos, best burger, best green chile, or best gluten-free, are pure reader vote, because a restaurant's overall stars don't measure one dish.
Where we've set one, our own 🏆 DougCo Social Pick sits alongside the community leader. It's an editorial call, and it changes as we visit new places and as spots evolve.
Results are public. Voting just needs a Castle Rock Crew or DougCo Drop subscription, and non-subscribers join DougCo Drop in one step. Don't see your favorite? Add a write-in on any category page.
